What to expect
Some people are good at keeping secrets but some secrets are never meant to be kept...
The beautiful old Bath House in Ballytokeep has lain empty and abandoned for decades. For devoted pensioners Archie and Iris, it holds too many conflicting memories – sometimes it's better to leave the past where it belongs.
For highflying, top London divorce lawyer Kate Hunt, it's a fresh start – maybe even her future. On a winter visit to see her estranged Aunt Iris she falls in love with the Bath House. Inspired, she moves to Ballytokeep leaving behind her past heartache – but can you ever escape your past or your destiny?
A bittersweet story of love, loss and life, from the number one bestselling author of The Ladies' Midnight Swimming Club. Perfect for the fans of Sheila O'Flannagan and Patricia Scanlan.
